Testimonials
We wanted to act fast to build a new product. Once we reached out to Lemon, we got things done at a speed I couldn’t have imagined.
We have 4 people who’ve already officially started working with us, and they’ve all been fantastic.
Posting a job gets you resumes. It doesn’t get you the top talent to build things.
The problem
For information technology positions, sourcing, vetting, negotiations, and paperwork take up to 2 months. Timelines for your tech initiatives might be more condensed.
The solution
Lemon.io’s pre-vetted pool of senior technology talent — including engineers with narrow specialization — allows you to adjust or build your team fast.

Top questions on IT staffing
What does an IT staffing company do?
An IT staffing company sources, vets, and presents IT professionals — software developers, DevOps engineers, cybersecurity experts, network engineers, system administrators, and more — for direct hire, contract, or contract-to-hire roles.
Lemon.io runs every candidate through technical, communication, and background vetting before you see a profile, then manages contracts and paperwork if needed.
What are the best IT recruiting agencies?
The best IT staffing agencies and tech recruiters combine deep technical vetting, fast turnaround, and real specialization in the skills you need. Look for a documented screening process, a track record in similar roles, transparent contracts, and flexibility across direct-hire and contract engagements.
How can tech staffing services help in finding specialized IT talent?
Specialized roles rarely surface through standard job boards. A staffing partner such as Lemon.io, with an existing, pre-vetted pool, helps you skip the sourcing delay and presents you with candidates matched to your stack and case.
How much do IT staffing services cost?
Cost depends on the engagement type. Direct hire roles typically involve a placement fee based on salary, while contract and contract-to-hire roles are billed hourly or at a markup on the contractor’s rate. Rates also vary by seniority, location, and skill niche — ask for a quote based on your specific role.
According to Lemon.io’s research on Software Developer Salary 2026, the median rate for all senior developers is $41–60/h.

Insurance
Lemon.io helped us build the team quickly and get things running smoothly. We went from A to Z — and rolled out a fully functioning insurance product within the first six months.
Fintech
We told Lemon.io exactly what we needed, down to the time zone and the kind of personality that would fit our team, and they found that person. He onboarded, reviewed the codebase, and worked on closing tickets within two weeks of starting with us.
Education
By week 2, I was like, ‘Okay, wow, I’m seeing so much stuff.’ By week 4, I was like, ‘I would trust you with my child.’ Lemon.io built Pirch so well and documented everything so clearly I’ve been able to add features myself over the last 30 days.
